    If there's one thing we know about communist countries is that fatalities are grossly underreported. Chances are high that it's also under-reported in surrounding areas.

    i don't think we know much about the virus yet, it is still being studied.

    there are a lot of if's and's or but's coming out of the research to date, and of course, this being china, the lack of transparency just makes it all the more difficult

    Pandemic = epidemic + continents...meaning TWO or more.

    If there's an "epidemic" here....and one "there", it's already a 'pandemic.'

    Um, shouldn’t China be paying for this?

    Funny how we get caught up in labels and definitions, but aren’t we better off with an abundance of caution before it becomes a pandemic?

    No you're thinking of Fiddy. He just got his star on the walk of fame.

    Though I will admit Tencent has fairly suddenly made itself a big part of a lot of the shows I work, and it was a good while before any of us figured out exactly what they were.
